Rope

Last summer I started to nanny three boys, Landon 12, Jaden 7 and Devon 6, Monday-Friday. I was there from eight in the morning to five or six at night. It was a struggle sometimes watching three boys but it was also very entertaining. During the summer we did a lot of things because it was summer and didn’t just want to sit in their house everyday. They live kind of in the middle of nowhere and their house is back into trees, their back yard is woods, so with their parents having three boys…

me look up and smile. “And I needed a way to climb and grab a hold of the edge, you were sitting there holding a rope” (Sobiech). This quote from the song relates to my year because when I had a rough time my friends were there to help me. When I was struggling with putting my life together with a lot of stress, my friend was there to listen to my problems. This is like her holding a rope for me to help me make life a little easier. I had a rough time with…

they wanted. There would be: a game of kickball in the grass by the hill, tag or some imaginary game in the playground, a game of hopscotch or jump rope on the blacktop, and a place to talk to people and climb about in the wood chip section. On the small playground however, there was a larger blacktop area, but it always seemed packed with more jump rope, four square, basketball, and hopscotch than there was room for. There was a small playground area for everyone else to herd into because for…

The day I wish I could relive is the day that my family and I landed in Germany for part of our summer vacation. This was a special day for me because it was my first time out of the country, and my dad is always talking about when he would always go to Germany when he was a kid. He has a lot of family members there, his mom was born in a town near a huge city called Hamburg. When we landed we had to get our bags from the baggage claim. Then we had to go buy train tickets because the hotel was…

Alisa. My oldest brother Lee Williams and I had a fused relationship even as children; after school we would attend the afternoon school program. When we came home, he would turn the jump rope for me because we were not allowed to go outside. He uses to tie the ropes on the door knob and turn both the jump ropes; I was jumping double Dutch. The baby sitter Ms. Josephine would watch us and give us a snack until my mother came home; she lived down the hall. Lee my brother grew up and became a…

his actions were none too soon as the leather gripped it firmly. The woman's vigor surprised him, nearly yanking him off his feet, however, he recovered and found the strength to pull her toward him. Instantly the leather tension slackened and the rope fell…

tavern keeper John Lloyd (Linder, 2002). According to Linder, Lloyd told the Military Commission that about a month before the assassination he was visited and asked by three other conspirators to conceal two carbines, ammunition, about twenty feet of rope, and a monkey-wrench. Mary Surratt suggested hiding them under joists in a second-floor room. Lloyd testified that three days before the assassination, Mary Surratt told him that “the shooting irons” left at his home by the conspirators weeks…

confrontation with Balducci. Daru first sees Balducci, a police man, climbing a slope holding an Arab man by a rope. After a short conversation between the two, it is announced that Balducci was tasked with the order to present the Arab prisoner to Daru and return to El Ameur. Balducci admits to moral conflict by confessing “‘I don't like it either. You don't get used to putting a rope on a man even after years of it, and you're even ashamed--yes, ashamed. But you can't let them have their…
